Tesoro Outlaw vs Bandido II

If you read any of my past posts you know how I feel about the Tesoro Bandido II
 
Tab I value your opinion,
 
Hey Tab, One think I'm noticing the last several days is maybe i'm running the Outlaw to high on sens too. I usually have her around the 9oclock position but think it's just to much gain for typical general hunting in a park setting. With all of the junk in the ground i think it "see's " too much at once if that makes any sense. I'm having a little better luck with the coins with my sense around 3/4 max. I did hit the woods yesterday for a bit and tried running supertuned since there was no junk. You can dig 9" with the 8" coil this way and recover 22 shells that sound like a penny at 4"! I put the shell back in hole and then pulled one the many beaver tails i had in my pocket and placed it 4" to the side of the hole and roughly 4" deep. So a pull tab 4" deep and a 22 shell around 8"/9" deep. While discing the pulltab, not a peep on the shell. It was either masked by the pull tab or lost it's depth by the time I disc'd high enough to loose the tab. I then ran all metal thresh and dug to china for a piece of flat thin copprr the size of my pinky nail. It has the depth, it just needs good trash free ground to get to it. More testing to come
 
I've found the DeLeon and Cortez to be more senstive in trashy areas than disired if the sensitvity isn't throttled back a ways. Power is nice, but not always the answer.
